ShareGOAL! Liverpool 2-1 Crystal Palace (Munoz 71)
Premier League: Freddie Woodman saves from Ismaila Sarr and injures his knee in the process. He tries to return to his feet but can’t, allowing Daniel Munoz to score into the unguarded net from 20 yards. Liverpool’s third choice goalkeeper looks to have suffered a bad knee injury but hasn’t come off yet.

The Tottenham goalkeeper rushed off his line to bravely deny Adam Armstrong after Danso made a dog’s breakfast of his effort to deal with a long ball from deep.
ShareXavi Simons forced off with a knee injury
Wolves 0-0 Tottenham Hotspur: Simons can’t continue and looks very upset as he makes way for Lucas Bergvall. I suspect that may be the last we see of Simons this season and he may be a non-starter as far as the Netherlands’ World Cup campaign is concerned. This afternoon is turning into the stuff of Tottenham’s worst nightmares.

Wolves 0-0 Tottenham Hotspur: Already a Dominic Solanke down after their centre-forward was forced off in the first half with a hammy, the Spurs bench look on in despair as Xavi Simons goes down with a knee injury. He’s soldiering on for now but it doesn’t look great for the Dutchman. If it wasn’t for bad luck, Spurs wouldn’t have any luck at all.
ShareMo Salah pulls his hamstring
Liverpool 2-0 Crystal Palace: Mo Salah pulls up lame and limps out of what looks like being his final appearance in a Liverpool shirt. It’s a sad way for his time at the club to end, presuming it is his last hurrah.

West Ham 0-0 Everton: West Ham appeal for a penalty as Taty Castellanos is brought down by Jordan Pickford, whose momentum led to him catching the West Ham striker as he came out to dive at his feet. It’s no penalty but there’s a goal at the London Stadium and if you’re a Spurs fan, look away now …
Tottenham Hotspur: Those who celebrate expected goals might be interested to hear that Roberto de Zerbi’s side had an xG of 0.12 in the first half of their match against Wolves. Mathys Tel is on for Randal Kolo Muani at half-time in a bid to take the bare look off that dismal stat.

Wolves 0-0 Tottenham Hotspur: Wolves midfielder Andre has been booked for a crunching tackle on Yves Bissouma that perhaps deserved a red card. Tottenham’s players certainly thought so and even Rob Edwards feared the worst as Anthony Taylor pondered his decision. It’s half-time at Molineux.
Wolves 0-0 Tottenham Hotspur: We’re still waiting for a shot on target from either team at Molineux. Tottenham have just lost Dominic Solanke to injury and are offering little or nothing in attack.
ShareGOAL! Liverpool 2-0 Crystal Palace (Robertson 40)
Premier League: Freddie Woodman pulls off a superb save from JP Mateta at one end, before Liverpool break forward and score through Andy Robertson at the other. The Scot was played in behind by Curtis Jones before firing a low shot past Dean Henderson.

GOAL! Liverpool 1-0 Crystal Palace (Isak 35)
Premier League: Alexander Isak puts Liverpool ahead against their 2025-26 bogey team, intercepting an Alexis Mac Allister shot that was going wide and sending the ball past Dean Henderosn. It’s the Swede’s first goal since breaking his leg in December.

Championship: Oscar Fraulo has restored parity for Derby County against QPR at Loftus Road, where it’s all square at one goal apiece after 28 minutes.
ShareNo penalty for Liverpool
Premier League: As expected, the decision is overturned. There was no foul but it almost certainly wasn’t a dive either. Salah simply lost his balance and fell over as Johnson chased him down.
SharePenalty for Liverpool!
Premier League: Crystal Palace’s Brennan Johnson is penalised for a trip on Mo Salah, who goes to ground on the edge of the penalty area and gets straight back up without appealing for a spot-kick. There didn’t look to be any contact and this decision will probably be overturned on the advice of VAR.

Championship: Liam Lindsey scores his second goal of the afternoon, sending a glancing header at a corner past Adam Davies to put Preston two goals up.

Updated at 10.21 EDT
Premier League: We’re still waiting for a goal, or even a chance of note in any of the three top flight matches being played at the moment. West Ham are looking nervous against Everton, while Tottenham are dominating Wolves early doors but have yet to trouble Jose Sa.
